Ollie’s Bargain Outlet will be the entitlement sponsor for the NASCAR XFINITY Series Dash 4 Cash race on Saturday, May 14, Dover International Speedway officials announced today.

The Ollie’s Bargain Outlet 200 NASCAR XFINITY Series Dash 4 Cash race will be the third of four Dash 4 Cash events on the NASCAR XFINITY Series schedule this season. Starting at 2 p.m. on May 14, two 40-lap Heat events will be run, followed by a 120-lap Main event.

The event comes in the middle of the May 13-15 NASCAR tripleheader weekend at the Monster Mile, which includes a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race on Friday, May 13 and the “AAA 400 Drive for Autism” NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on Sunday, May 15.

“Ollie’s Bargain Outlet has been a strong partner of the Monster Mile for several years,” said Mike Tatoian, Dover International Speedway’s president and CEO. “We’re proud to expand our relationship with this enhanced sponsorship opportunity and look forward to working together in the future.”

In addition to sponsoring the Ollie’s Bargain Outlet 200, Ollie’s is also one of several supporters of the Monster Mile’s Autism Awareness Day at the Races program, which provides children and families on the autism spectrum with a sensory-friendly environment to watch the “AAA 400 Drive for Autism” on Sunday, May 15. Ollie’s will be contributing toys, games, lounge items and more to the popular program.

“We have had a great relationship with Dover International Speedway for many years, so when they presented the entitlement sponsor opportunity to us, we were excited to jump on board,” said Mark Butler, Ollie’s Bargain Outlet’s chairman, president and CEO. “We are also happy to support our friends at Autism Delaware and their efforts, along with Dover’s Autism Awareness Day at the Races program.”
